Description:

At the 2018 Annual Meeting, presenters of thie HeadTalk debated and presented novel reports of zombie occurrences throughout the country. Over the last year, acknowledgement within the medical community and national awareness of this disease has grown. In a short amount of time we have learned extensively about the neurodegenerative disease of "zombie-ism" now formally called ataxic neurodegenerative satiety deficiency syndrome (ANSD). This year presenters will discuss the "research" conducted over the last year that allows for better understanding of the specific intraparenchymal lesions associated with this disease; debunk some of the myths associated with those affected with ANSD; and share some invaluable facts to help you provide safe and high-quality care to those infected. This presentation is recommended for Mature Audiences Only.
